Matthew West is known for incredible songs, most of which he wrote! This one is about the awesome nature of who Jesus is and why He came to this earth. Jesus coming to earth was all about saving every soul that would every walk this earth. Thank you God for sending your Son as a gift, Unto Us.
Verse for Consideration:
Isaiah 7:14 ESV
Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Lyrics:
Who are we that a King would trade Heaven's riches
For a stable and a manager low
Can it be, Great I am bending down to reach us
Morning star, let this dark world know
Here is our promised one
Jesus, our hope has come
Unto us, unto us
A child is born
Unto us, unto us
A son is given
Glory to God in the highest
Wonderful, Prince of Peace
Emmanuel, has come to set captives free
And with the angels we sing
"Glory to God in the highest..."
He has brought this great love
Unto us
Who are we that a King would still walk among us
Knowing He would only live to die
Cross of shame, crown of thorns He still chose to carry
Beauty broken, breathing us new life
Here is our promised one
Jesus, our hope has come
Unto us, unto us
A child is born
Unto us, unto us
A son is given
Glory to God in the highest
Wonderful, Prince of Peace
Emmanuel, has come to set captives free
And with the angels we sing
"Glory to God in the highest..."
He has brought this great love
Unto us
Emmanuel, Emmanuel, Emmanuel
Love has come
Unto us, unto us
A child is born
Unto us, unto us
A son is given
Glory to God in the highest
Wonderful, Prince of Peace
Emmanuel, has come to set captives free
And with the angels we sing
"Glory to God in the highest...."
He has brought this great love
Unto us
